So, I have made some drawings, and I hope that this helps.

This is the art cart. I believe it is 24″ wide and 48″ long. It’s a beast and barely fits through the classroom doors. It is super sturdy and has industrial wheels…very key for moving around campus.

The drying rack fit perfectly on the top shelf of the art cart. Not only serving its purpose as a drying rack, it also acted as a means for keeping classroom art separated and organized.

Maybe some of their designs we will see in the coming years, solar powered cars, single wheel rollers, or giant building like yachts on wheels. This was paired with a Styrofoam block printing process. It was fun to watch their drawing get printed. They almost look like chalkboard drawings, or blueprints.

This was a rotating paper class project. Each student started with a blank piece of paper and was given 30 seconds to draw an animal part, then, after 30 seconds, they would pass their paper to the right. After about 10 rounds of passing the paper, a crazy animal was created. Each student received the paper they started with, and and added finishing touches and a background. They used sharpie and watercolor to bring their mixed up animal to life.
